This hit me too, I am developing servlets with Scala.
I can't find a "/_ah/reloadwebapp" link (I use the eclipse plugin),
what am I doing wrong ?
In the meantime I went back to good old Tomcat for development, so far
everything works smoothly.
Here a sample "server.xml" snippet, I just put my context-docbase on
the normal eclipse workspace:
<Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="/mygaeapp" docBase="C:/UserData/workspace/SGaeApp01/
war" debug="0" reloadable="true">
<Logger
className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="localhost_examples_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/>
</Context>
</Host>
I hope the SDK sources get published sooner or later, the
"com.google.appengine.tools.development.DevAppServer Interface" has a
"restart" method which is somewhow hidden, to fix this would be faster
than submitting an issue.
